Team work on droplet rheotaxis! Chenyu saw weird oscillations and we asked our bachelor (!) student Carola to follow up. Ranabir took the helm and did the hydrodynamics; @BabakVH did his fluorescence wizardry. rdcu.be/cOmNu @NatureComms @mpids @UTwente @poftwente



Bentkamp et al. report the statistical geometry of material loops in turbulence #GettingApplied nature.com/articles/s4146…


I’m super happy to announce that I was awarded an @ERC_Research Consolidator Grant by 🇪🇺. We will use this funding to understand how droplets in biological cells behave by developing theoretical models @mpids. We are looking for Ph.D. students and postdocs to help us! #ERCCoG

A unicellular, network-shaped slime mould with impressively complex behaviour shows how movement and structural adaptation behaviour emerges from self-organised patterns of rhythmic contractions. elifesciences.org/articles/62863…
